And there can be some great rewards after that. Some CD or
streaming versions are not like the original LP releases.
One of the tracks on, Chris de Burgh's Spanish Train and Other
Stories LP features a longer ending and a special effect near
the end. That ending is not found on alternate media.
A friend of mine noticed the ommission too and said, "Chris de
Burgh's " A Spaceman Came Travelling" has a neat
instrumental after a pause at the end of the track that is on
the LP but is missing from the CD. It always annoyed me very
much because I thought is was key to the song."
Wednesday's, Last Kiss, the harmonies sound very different on
the 45 RPM version which I have compared to the Spotify
version.
Of my 1100 LPs, a few dozen are surely unique and not found on
alternative media. It would be cool to have some of them
digital so that they could be more portable and be able to que
them up at a whim of the moment.
